I have a 2015 920 that I bought used last year. The rod lockers and the rear compartment lids fit very tight and are very hard to open. Does anyone else have this problem, and is there a fix?

Is the carpet just extremely fresh and new? That's not necessarily a bad thing if that's it.

You can use a beard trimmer to cut/shave the carpet pile a little on the lid sides to free up some room. I had to do that on my fish-n-ski after installing new carpet.

Mine are really tight also. I like them like that. If you grab the handle and give it a quick pull up they open right up. You almost give them a quick jerk.
My 13yr old gets them open no problem. It seems more like suction than sticking.
good luck
I worked on the worst one with my orange harbor freight deadblow and it opens fairly easy now. Thanks for the tip. Now I'm going back out to the garage to beat the rest of them.

I have one that's a little tight. Are you opening them slightly and "tapping" the edge to slightly "adjust" the hinge back a little.
